Being Watched Conference
Saturday 14th March:
Have you booked on yet?

From mobile phones to social networking sites, technology has become part of the way we live our lives. Although there are many benefits to the way we may choose to communicate with each other and seek information, these exchanges are increasingly putting people at risk of being monitored, controlled, stalked or even abused.

Who is making the decisions about the privacy settings on Facebook and social media? What can we do about mass surveillance? Find out more about the difference it could make if more women were involved in Science Technology Engineering and Maths.

Being Watched is an entirely free and exciting opportunity for young women aged 13-19 from Manchester to come together in order to identify and find ways to address surveillance and control in their lives. No More Page 3 and other inspirational speakers will open the event with some wonderful words, along with an exclusive Revolutionary Women tour with prizes, games & activities, workshops and a chance to hot seat female politicians and key decision makers about how we can tackle some of these issues some fantastic poetry to finish. There’s a little bit of something for everyone, have a look at our February bulletin here at the various sessions and workshops that will be taking place throughout the day.

This event is not to be missed so for further details about the event including information on travel bursaries and to book FREE tickets for you/your young women’s group please head over to the eventbrite here !
